    Shen Qibao hurriedly returned to Li Yan, and at a glance he saw Li Yan sitting under the candlelight, looking through the account book.

    Li Yan raised his head at the right moment and glanced at the person coming, "He came quite quickly."

    He closed the account book in his hand and said with a half-smile, "Your father has a really big appetite."

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Out of consideration for his master¡¯s money, he even dared to take part in the military pay issued by the imperial court to frontier sergeants.

    Shen Qibao faced Li Yan's sarcastic gaze and took away the account book from his hand with numbness, "Don't look at me like this. I didn't ask him to do this."

    Seeing the nervousness on his face, Li Yan sneered, "Why are you so nervous? I won't do anything that will harm others and not benefit myself. Besides -" Thinking of the person who came to assassinate him last night, he said seriously: "I'm afraid  It¡¯s your father who is about to go to the King of Hell to report.¡±

    Shen Qibao paused while holding the account book, and said with a solemn face: "Don't say that again in the future. I don't mind, but others will say you are unfilial and you are cursing your elders." Afterwards, he muttered again.  He said: "Don't always be my father. He is also your father now."

    Hearing this, Li Yan fell silent, rarely able to say anything to refute.

    *

    The development of the matter did not deviate from Li Yan's guess.

    A few days later, the housekeeper said with a sad face that Mr. Shen was robbed by gangsters on his way back home. When he resisted, he was stabbed to death by the gangsters. Afterwards, his body was not found.

    Shen Qibao was devastated when he heard the news, but Li Yan fell into deep thought.

    Although he only met Mr. Shen once, it was enough for him to understand him once.

    Mr. Shen seems to be a good old man, but in fact he is an extremely cunning old fox, and the good old man is just his mask.  Moreover, he can even steal food from a tiger's mouth without being noticed for many years. This shows that he is a smart man. Would such a person go out with gold, silver and jewelry to attract people's attention?

    Even if he went out with a lot of money, compared with his own life, Li Yan didn't think he would risk his life for such a small amount of money.

    After all, greedy people always cherish their lives.

    No matter what, the Shen Mansion hung up Bai Ling as quickly as possible and started the funeral.

    Since Mr. Shen¡¯s body was not found, Shen Qibao took the initiative to build a tomb for Mr. Shen. The coffin contained Mr. Shen¡¯s clothes during his lifetime.

    There were many people who came to express their condolences, most of them were people who had business dealings with Mr. Shen, but Shen Qibao didn't know him at all.

    He was a man who had been stupid for decades. Master Shen thought he was embarrassed during his lifetime and would not let him leave the house at all. This resulted in him not knowing whether the people who came to express condolences were really friends with Master Shen or not.  Purpose.

    Shen Qibao also knew that his father died inexplicably, and there was always an uneasiness lingering in his heart. After much thought, he finally handed over the account book to Li Yan for safekeeping. In any case, the safety of the Shen family was tied to this account book.  superior.  And Li Yan was very capable, so it was safer to be with him than with him.

    Regarding the death of his father, Shen Qibao was very sad on the surface, but he was very happy in his heart. His mother was killed by him early, but he has lived rich and wealthy for so many years. In addition to power, he has enjoyed all the beauty and money.  It's also time to go downstairs to atone for my mother's sins.

    Let him take revenge?  Don't think about it. He didn't do it himself, which was because of the father-son relationship between the two of them.

    Of course, he still had to keep up appearances. He asked the housekeeper to donate a lot of money to local officials, asking for the arrest of Mr. Shen's murderer.

    After the funeral, a group of relatives claiming to be Mr. Shen from the countryside came to the door to complain about the autumn wind. Their words were nothing more than saying that Shen Qibao was a fool and could not keep such a huge family property. Instead of waiting for the Wan Guan family wealth to be deceived by outsiders, they should  It's better to give these poor relatives a break.

    Late at night.

    Shen Qibao walked into the room with a tired look on his face. The group of people knew he was a 'fool', but they still held on to him.  It's obvious that you're bullying him, isn't it?

    Although he didn¡¯t have to do anything and his housekeeper was there to help him in everything, those relatives were not easy to deal with. Their words and deeds were both rude and unbearable. It was difficult to deal with one person, let alone a group of them.

    Li Yan sat in front of the table with a lamp on and looked through the Shen Mansion's account books. Originally, Aunt Hong took care of the Shen Mansion's middle cash. After Mr. Shen left, Shen Qibao also thought about leaving the middle cash to his wife to take care of, but  Before he could take action, the worried relatives came to his door.

    Aunt Hong has relied on the power in her hands to manage her own power over the years. This is why she has remained strong in the house and has repeatedly had affairs with Shen Yunhe without being discovered by Mr. Shen.??.  It was just a matter of time before she left, and Shen Qibao was the only male heir in the house. How could she, a concubine, dare to offend Shen Qibao without a backer?

    Although Shen Qibao was stupid, his wife was not stupid, so after she came to test Li Yan several times, she consciously handed over the gift to Li Yan.

    She is a very smart woman.

    Since Li Yan ¡®married¡¯ into the Shen Mansion, he rarely left the hospital, so his impression of Aunt Hong was based on what Yicui said.

    After having met several times this time, I discovered that Aunt Hong is indeed smart. Although she is loved by Mr. Shen, she has worked hard to win it. Mr. Shen is doing business outside all year round, and there are dozens of sisters in the house. Even if  She was favored, but it was impossible for her to get her turn every night. For a woman in her thirties, when her sexual desire was strong, Mr. Shen could not satisfy her, so Shen Yunhe seduced her and she followed the trend.

    It is really rare to have such a liberal woman in ancient times, but she does live a happier life than other women who keep their duties.

    Li Yan did not look down on her, but rather admired her.  So when she proposed to go back to her hometown, Li Yan made the decision and agreed to her request.  He even gave her a large sum of money before she left.

    "I'm back." Li Yan said without raising his head.

    "Well, I'm back." Shen Qibao gathered his outer robe, and his cold heart slowly warmed up when he saw the person in the room with firelight.

    It is now summer and the weather is getting warmer, but Shen Qibao feels that it is colder than winter.

    After his father left, those unrelated relatives made up lies full of mistakes one by one to show off the kindness of Mr. Shen when he was young for the sake of the Shen family's property. Anyway, he was a fool and easy to fool.

    With such a cold heart, what else can he say?

    "How is the matter going?"

    "That's it." Shen Qibao didn't say anything more. His wife was already tired from looking at these account books, and he didn't want to bother her by bringing troubles from outside.

    Hearing this, Li Yan put down the account book in his hand, raised his head and pondered for a while, "Let's move." He looked at the surprised Shen Qibao calmly, and continued: "Didn't you say that you want to take me to visit the mountains and rivers, and travel around the world?  Do you want to go all over the world? Now is a great opportunity."

    Seeing that Shen Qibao remained silent for a while, Li Yan chuckled softly, "Are you reluctant to part with this wealth?"

    "No." Shen Qibao retorted quickly. He hurriedly walked behind Li Yan, arched his body and hugged his waist from behind. His thin and pointed chin poked his shoulder, and his cold cheek tightened.  She leaned against his head and said tiredly: "I'm not reluctant to let go of these things. I'm afraid. The cause of my father's death is unknown. You were assassinated some time ago. If you put the two things together, you know that someone wants to attack the Shen family.  , I¡¯m afraid that as soon as we leave the capital, our heads will be in different places.¡±

    Li Yan did not comment on his words. He was confident in his own strength and believed that he could protect Shen Qibao for the rest of his life.

    But Shen Qibao is an ordinary person, and it is only natural for him to have concerns.  Moreover, as he gradually fell in love with Li Yan, he would naturally put Li Yan's safety first subconsciously.

    Li Yan understands him, but understanding is understanding. Some things still need to be escaped as soon as possible.

    The water in the capital is too deep, and Shen Qibao is too young. He has never witnessed the change of imperial power, and does not understand what crazy things some people can do for the sake of power.

    The Shen Mansion is already in this quagmire, and now the only pillar of support is gone. The remaining fools, women and children are like turtles in the urn, they can be caught as they please.

    "Where is your father's adopted son? Have you found him?"

    "No, since my father suffered an accident, he disappeared and I don't know whether he is alive or dead." (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
